FAQs
Is this suit suitable for heavy rain?
The Pobble Puddle Suit offers good waterproof protection and is ideal for general wet weather play. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion, a more heavy-duty waterproof garment might be considered.
How do I clean the suit?
Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach, tumble drying, and dry cleaning. Close all fastenings before washing and air dry.
What does the breathability rating mean?
A breathability rating of 5,000g/m2/24hrs means that 5,000 grams of water vapor can pass through one square meter of the fabric in a 24-hour period. This is suitable for moderate activity, allowing perspiration to escape.
Can I use a fabric softener?
It is not recommended to use fabric softener as it can clog the pores of the fabric and reduce its breathability and waterproof properties over time.
What is the 'Durable Water Repellent' (DWR) finish?
DWR is a coating applied to the outer fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off, preventing the fabric from becoming saturated. This finish can wear off over time and may need to be reapplied.
What sizes are available?
This suit is available in various toddler and kids' sizes, typically indicated by age ranges such as 12-18 months, 2-3 years, and up to 5-6 years, depending on the specific product listing.
Is the hood removable?
No, the hood is grown-on, meaning it is permanently attached to the suit.
Troubleshooting
Suit is no longer fully waterproof.
The durable water repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Reapply a suitable DWR spray or wash-in treatment following the product's instructions to restore water repellency.
Child feels damp inside after playing.
Ensure the suit is properly fastened at the cuffs and waist to prevent water ingress. Check that the hood is secured. If the issue persists, the breathability might be overwhelmed by very intense activity; ensure proper ventilation when possible.
Fabric feels stiff or loses flexibility.
This can sometimes happen after washing. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding harsh chemicals. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the fabric. Air drying is recommended.
